The new printer will cost $830,000. It will cost $60,000 to install the new printer. The new printer will generate revenues of $1,120,000 per year. In addition, the costs of operating the new printer will be $550,000 per year. The company will have to increase its investment in net operating working capital to $175,000 at time zero.

Although she has not been able to validate information a friend provided to her via e-mail, Staci is concerned that the financial information she has been provided by ProTech might paint a better financial picture than actually exists. Staci’s concern has been inflated as the result of pressure from her boss to set a good price for the IPO. In addition, it has been reported (rumored) that Staci’s boss is a friend (perhaps close) with the CEO of ProTech. Staci has completed her analysis based on the information she was provided by ProTech, and she is ready to assign a price to the company’s stock.
